Ya Just Gotta Love the Religion of Peace!

Wonder if they printed names of people killed on the back. Talk about sickos!

The Religion of Peace: Where Parents Kill Children for Choosing Christ

The Answer to Islam! A Coptic Priest Who's Willing to Lay Down His Life for Jesus

Pray for this brave coptic orthodox priest who has drawn so many muslims to faith in Jesus Christ. There is a 60 million bounty on his head from the "religion of peace" and he's been labeled one of the most dangerous infidels in the world. His brother had his tongue cut out and was murdered for evangelizing Muslims.  A talk scheduled in Vienna, Austria in May had to be cancelled because of terrorist threats from the "religion of peace." Pray for all brave Muslims seeking the truth in Jesus Christ, that they may have the courage of the early martyrs to embrace Christianity despite the dangers in doing so. I wish Catholics in the United States had the same love for Christ exhibited by this Christian coptic priest. Be sure to read the interview with this modern day Daniel linked after the video.



Interview with Fr. Botros

Take off the Rose-Colored Glasses and See the Real Islam!

Understanding the true nature of Islam grows more important every day as mosques and Islamic ghettos rise up in cities all over the United States. I haven't read the book described below but plan to get it. The "religion of peace" is a sham. And the bland acceptance of its peaceful pretense by the naive endangers our security.

After the book review I've included a "quiz" that is circulating on the internet. It gives a pretty clear picture of the dangers we face from those who follow Islam according to Mohammed and the Qur'an.

Islamic Contradictions
July-August 2010 By Philip Blosser

Book Review: Cracks in the Crescent. By Hussein Hajji Wario. Bethany Press. 252 pages. $24.95.

Since the events of 9/11, Christians in the West have become increasingly interested in what makes the Muslim world tick. Writers and publishers, for their part, have begun turning out a growing number of books introducing Western Christians to the world of Islam. Offerings from Catholic publishers include Jacques Jomier's The Bible and the Qur'an (Ignatius Press, 2002), Dan­iel Ali and Robert Spen­cer's Inside Islam: A Guide for Catholics (Ascension Press, 2003); Spen­cer's Islam Unveiled (Encounter Books, 2003), and Giorgio Pao­lucci and Ca­mille Eid's interview-based volume, 111 Questions on Islam: Samir Kha­lil Samir, S.J., on Islam and the West (Ignatius Press, 2008), to mention but a few.

Hussein Hajji Wario's Cracks in the Crescent warrants special notice. Two facts set this book apart. First, Wario is not only a former Sunni Muslim with years of experience in an Islamic culture, but unlike many Muslims was thoroughly educated in the esoteric aspects of Islam. Second, the arguments he uses to expose Islam — arguments honed by years of experience of debating Muslim peers after his Christian conversion — are drawn from the extensive literature of Islam itself, not merely the Qur'an, but Islamic history, Seerah (the life of Muham­mad), Sunnah (specific words, actions, and practices of Mu­hammad), and Hadith (narrations based on the words of Muhammad shedding light on the Qur'an and matters of jurisprudence), and Fiqh (Islamic jurisprudence). The purpose of his book, Wario says, is to help both Muslims and non-Muslims seeking answers about the true nature of Islam.

Wario was educated in traditional Islamic schools, called ma­drassa, in Kenya during his formative years. Upon graduation he served as a madrassa teaching assistant and as a muadhin, the man who calls Muslims to prayer, in his native hometown. The first fourteen chapters of his book chronicle his upbringing in the monolithically Muslim community of his Kenyan Orma tribe, the shocking persecutions that followed his Christian conversion in 1989, and his emigration to the United States, where he attended Hope College in Michigan. The final two chapters deal thematically with the distortions behind the "Jesus of Islam" and the "Promised Comforter," whom Muslims understand to be Muhammad.

Western readers will be startled to read Wario's account of the tight, hierarchical network of Muslim clerics who strictly oversaw every aspect of Wario's education. All of life revolved around the madrassa and local mosque. As soon as he was old enough, he was taught to read and write Arabic, and then to read the Qur'an. Along with fellow schoolboys, he still bears scars from the floggings they received when they misspelled or mispronounced words from the Qur'an.

The Naivete of the "Dialogue" Priest About Imam's Belief in Sharia Law

These two stories from Jihad Watch illustrate how naive some Catholic priests engaging in "dialogue" with Islam are. Note the priest was absolutely "shocked" when he realized the imam whom he believed to be tolerant and moderate turned out to embrace Sharia Law's call for the thief to have his hand cut off.

Why was the priest shocked? Because he thought the imam would reject the aspects of Sharia Law that he himself considered extreme fundamentalism.

Here's what the padre said:

"I tried to insist violence is unacceptable. The concept is horrific to me. It is equivalent to the death penalty. I know it is what Sharia law dictates but, coming from him, such a moderate and tolerant person, I was shocked."

There are many people who are naive about Islam. Read this eye-opening paragraph:

So he was "shocked." Oh, he knew what the Shari'a said. He knew that it called for the cutting off of the hands of thieves. But still, you see, in all these years of learning about Islam, and meeting with Muslims, and listening to them, including among them this Muslim cleric whom he apparently knew ("such a moderate and tolerant person"), it never occurred to Camilleri that just perhaps, Muslims - including many or even most of those outwardly, to the undiscerning and ill-prepared, "moderate and tolerant" - might actually be Muslims who took Islam fully to heart. And they not only took it fully to heart, but were quite capable, for a long period, and in great numbers, for disturbing reasons, of practicing Taqiyya, which can be defined as "a doctrine in Islam, having its origin in Shi'a Islam but, on the basis of both Qur'anic textual authority, and the example of Muhammad, is a common practice of both Shi'a and Sunni Muslims, and involves religiously-sanctioned dissimulation about both the Faith of Islam and about the beliefs of particular (threatened) Muslims."

Ah, reality...it is such a shock to the liberal priest and to those who believe that one can take the outward expression of the "religion of peace" at face value. We've seen the naivete before:

Communism benefits the common man. Stalin was Uncle Joe. Ignore the millions who died under his regime.

Cuba under Castro is an island paradise. Ignore the persecuted and murdered under his regime. Those boat people just didn't know how good they had it.

Mao's philosophy is something to admire and emulate. Ignore the millions murdered under his regime.

Ho Chi Minh was a good leader of his people. (Just ask Jane Fonda.) Read about the atrocities he committed in his reign of terror.

Well, one can hope that a dose of reality will help this priest be a little more realistic in the future. As for those who believe that everything an imam says can be taken at face value, please read the bold lettering above one more time. What don't you understand about the words "religiously-sanctioned dissimulation?"
